“As photographers, we must learn to relax our beliefs. Move on objects with your eye straight on, to the left, around on the right. Watch them grow large as they approach, group and regroup as you shift your position. Relationships gradually emerge and sometimes assert themselves with finality. And that's your picture.” SometimesEyeMovingBeliefLeftGrowsWatchesGroupsPositionObjectsApproachPhotographerRelaxFinality Author:Aaron Siskind
“When human men hold an object that makes a powerful noise, or has moving parts, or spins around fast, or has a button they can push (which either screws or nails something) they become Gods in their own heads.They can do anything: they can eat through walls and bring buildings together to form mighty empires.They can build floating cities and flying tin cans.But they still can't make their own beds.” MenHumansStillsTogetherMovingFormCan DoPowerfulCitiesObjectsBuildingWallBedFlyingNoiseEmpiresButtonsNailsFloatingScrewsTinMoving PartsTin Cans Author:Craig Stone

“If you vent anger with the object of spreading your toxic feelings, the result will have nothing to do with healing. Your anger is your weapon. On the other hand, if you release anger the way you'd expel a rock from your shoe, your intention clearly has healing behind it. Once the anger starts flowing, both of these alternatives might feel the same. Anger is anger. But if you have a healing intention, two things will happen: you will feel more peaceful after your anger has been released, and you will feel like an old, fixed belief in enemies and injustice has started to move.” IfsWayFeelsHas BeensTwoFeelingsHandsMightHappensMovingBeliefResultsHealingBehindsEnemyRocksObjectsWeaponsAngerIntentionInjusticeShoesPeacefulReleaseAlternativesFixedTwo ThingsToxic Author:Deepak Chopra
“Pleasure and pain at once register upon the lover, inasmuch as the desirability of the love object derives, in part, from its lack. To whom is it lacking? To the lover. If we follow the trajectory of eros we consistently find it tracing out this same route: it moves out from the lover toward the beloved, then ricochets back to the lover himself and the hole in him, unnoticed before. Who is the subject of most love poems? Not the beloved. It is that hole.” IfsLovePainMovingPleasureSubjectsObjectsLoversHolesBelovedConsistentlyLackingRoutesLove PoemsRegisterUnnoticedTrajectoryPain And PleasureErosTracingDesirabilityRicochet Book:Eros the Bittersweet: An Essay Source: Eros the Bittersweet: An Essay

“Indeed, all things move, all things run, all things are rapidly changing. A profile is never motionless before our eyes, but it constantly appears and disappears. On account of the persistency of an image upon the retina, moving objects constantly multiply themselves; their form changes like rapid vibrations, in their mad career. Thus a running horse has not four legs, but twenty, and their movements are triangular.” EyeRunningMovingFormCareersFourMovementObjectsAll ThingsAccountsHorseTwentiesMadLegsDisappearRapidsVibrationsProfile Author:Giacomo Balla

“It is easy for desire to be caught like a bird in a net, its wings fouled and twisted, no longer free to cross back and forth between silence and word. Desire may also find itself so amputated by tradition and community that it wanders in a void with nothing to orient it, to shape or discipline it. Desire must find ways to navigate its bitter and sweet paradox: it moves toward but also always through and beyond every object.” WayMayMovingDesireEasyCommunitySilenceObjectsSweetDisciplineShapesBirdTraditionCrossesWingsCaughtBitterWanderParadoxVoidTwistedBack And ForthNavigate Author:Wendy Farley

“There are many things worth telling that are not quite narrative. And eternity itself possesses no beginning, middle or end. Fossils, arrowheads, castle ruins, empty crosses: from the Parthenon to the Bo Tree to a grown man's or woman's old stuffed bear, what moves us about many objects is not what remains but what has vanished. There comes a time, thanks to rivers, when a few beautiful old teeth are all that remain of the two-hundred-foot spires of life we call trees. There comes a river, whose current is time, that does a similar sculpting in the mind.” MenMindDoeTwoEndsBeautifulMovingTreeFeetMiddleObjectsBearsHundredRiversCrossesEmptyEternityRemainsCurrentsTeethRuinsThanksNarrativeFossilsCastlesThere Comes A TimeGrown ManSculptingAll That RemainsSpiresParthenon Author:David James Duncan
“What quality is shared by all objects that provoke our aesthetic emotions? Only one answer seems possible— significant form. In each, lines and colors combined in a particular way; certain forms and relations of forms, stir our aesthetic emotions. These relations and combinations of lines and colors, these aesthetically moving forms, I call ‘Significant Form’; and ‘Significant Form’ is the one quality common to all works of visual art.” WayArtSeemsMovingFormCertainLinesAnswersCommonEmotionQualityObjectsParticularColorRelationSignificantCombinationVisualsAestheticProvokingVisual Art Author:Clive Bell
